Texas Common Core Curriculum

THECB has developed the Texas Common Core Curriculum (TCCC). This 42 semester credit hour curriculum transfers freely from one Texas public institution of higher education to another. UT Permian Basin identifies courses using the TEHCB common course numbering system and most of the University's general education requirements meet the TCCC requirements.

Students transferring to UT Permian Basin who have completed a 42 semester credit hour core at a Texas public college or university will receive a minimum of 42 semester credits for the core as transfer credits and will have met the University's general education requirements.

Students transferring to UT Permian Basin who have completed fewer than 42 semester credits from core courses at a Texas public college or university will receive credit toward the University's general education requirements for the credits taken. The student should consult with their advisor for elements of the general education requirements that remain to be completed.

UT Permian Basin Course Numbering

Courses are identified by a four-letter prefix of the discipline followed by a four-digit course number. The first digit represents the level as outlined below. The second digit denotes the number of credit hours. The last two digits are departmental designations, normally used to distinguish courses of the same level and credit value or sequence.

  • 0398 -0399 Developmental courses
  • 1000-1999 Freshman courses.
  • 2000-2999 Sophomore courses.
  • 3000-3999 Junior courses.
  • 4000-4999 Senior courses.
  • 6000-6999 Graduate courses

Texas Common Course Numbering System (TCCNS)

TCCNS was developed to facilitate transfer of general academic courses among Texas public institutions. Common courses are included in the Community College General Academic Course Guide Manual, published by the THECB and may be used to determine how freshman and sophomore-level courses transfer from and to Texas public institutions. The statewide TCCN may be accessed at www.tccns.org

The common course number has a standardized four-letter prefix followed by a four-digit number, for example, ENGL 1301. The four-letter prefix identifies the subject area. Each digit in the four-digit sequence gives additional information about the course. The first digit identifies the course as either freshman level (1) or sophomore level (2). The second digit identifies the number of credit hours a student will earn upon completion of the course. Most often this digit will be a 1, 2, 3, or 4. The final two digits serve to establish the sequence in which courses are generally taken.
